Thank you for the answer.

@aequitas-et-veritas Does anyone know if downloading or using the BM4 map will have an adverse affect on the BM3 map? I’m late stages of a BM3 game that I don’t want to mess up but would also like to start a BM4.

I believe that the game started will stay that version despite updating the map.

Hi. Need rules clarification:

USA political Sit:

Also, need a clarification on this rule:

“USA political Sit:
If USA is not at war with Germany or Italy, USA may only move its units to sea zones touching USA territories and also Sea Zone 102.
If USA is not at war with Japan, USA may not move its units into sea zones touching Japanese controlled territories.
USA cannot go to war against the Axis until the beginning of PU collect phase of USA 3, unless of course an Axis power attacks it first.
Once at war, the Minor Factories in continental USA upgrade to Major Factories automatically for free, and may be used immediately.”

In a game I’m playing, usa declared war at end of round 3 as allowed. However, when I checked the automatic, immediate, and free update did not happen as the factories were still minor after USA 3 but before USA 4. We can edit them to major factories before Usa 4 if usa is at war, right?

They upgrade at the very end of USA 3 and in any case you are restricted by placement restrictions on usa 3. Also you place new units before you may declare war on usa 3.

[aagamerz13]

Nevermind I see what happens. If usa buys 10+ units, it gives a message saying do you want to purchase 10+ units when you can only place 9? Usa would say yes to purchase 10+ units. At some point before placement, the factories update so the 10+ units can be placed. What threw me off, since I don’t often make it to the point where usa has to declare war, was the warning message because the update is not immediate but is instead at some point before usa 4 placement. No issues, just have to select yes when the placement warning shows.

[oysteilo]

@aagamerz13 you can only place 9 units. So rules for over purchase kickstart inn

[aagamerz13]

@oysteilo The rules say the factory immediately changes once us is at war. So the factories should be edited to majors as soon as us is at war, correct? I thought this was a user editable bug

[aagamerz13]

@oysteilo ok. I think you misunderstand. I’m talking about the start of usa 4 not round 3. If usa declares war at end of round 3, the factories are still minor at usa4 purchase. They don’t auto update until after usa 4 purchase which is why the message shows.

[aequitas-et-veritas]

On round 4 you may buy more then 9 units with US.
At the beginning of your Deploy phase, the IC’s than will upgrade and you may place more then just three unis on any of your upgraded IC’s now.

[aagamerz13]

@aequitas-et-veritas right. it just shows a warning message that the player can only place 9, that the player must ignore

A game I’m playing in has lost its “Forum Password” is there a way to recover it? I’m guessing logging out of the forum will present that option but… once I’m logged out I’ll kinda be on the outside looking in so I thought I’d ask here first.

[gamerman01]

I have the same problem. I need the forum password on my newest computer and can’t play by forum. Can’t copy paste from the other computer that has a forum password encrypted. Tried using, and resetting axisandallies.org password, doesn’t work.

Shows 4 bullets, I doubt the password was even 4 characters long. Apparently the axisandallies.org password isn’t the same as the triplea forum password. And yes I have the axisandallies.org/forums selected from the dropdown menu and not the triplea

[gamerman01]

Oh, and it’s the long java error message. Does anyone know what to do? I’ve tried installing latest java but that’s not it

[LennardF]

@gamerman01 I found my old password but… I also noticed that things had been switched to TripleA - switching back to axisandallies.org caused the software to find my password again. My password isn’t 4 characters long but, like you, it shows four bullet points so that must just be what the program does.

[gamerman01]

So did it work? Thanks for the info

@gamerman01 blimey! I haven’t tried. I hope I am okay . ( I hate change!).
Good luck guys .
